Scouting Report: Trevor Rosenthal
Chicago Cubs | RP
Overall
Summary
Trevor Rogers was reinstated from the 15-day injured list after recovering from the flu (illness) that sidelined him in late April. The 28-year-old left-handed starter showed promise early in the 2026 season with a 1.89 ERA and 1.05 WHIP over his first three starts (2-0 record, 19 innings), but struggled significantly in his final three starts before the illness, going 0-3 with a 4.75 ERA. Upon return, Rogers continued to struggle, posting a 6.87 ERA and 1.66 WHIP through mid-May, including a poor outing against Tampa Bay (3.2 IP, 7 ER). However, his 2025 season performance (1.81 ERA in 18 starts) provides hope for recovery. The Orioles' rotation ranks 28th in MLB with a 5.03 ERA, making Rogers' return critical to the team's playoff hopes.
